Ellafella Posted December 24, 2019 Share Posted December 24, 2019 (edited) This book by local Derby historian Peter Seddon is an absolute “must read” for Derby County fans. Exquisitely and beautifully written, the prose takes you back 135 years to the very moments at the Bell Hotel in Sadlergate, Derby in May 1884 when the “upstart” Chocolate & Cambridge Blues were created; you are taken through the journey piece by piece and can almost hear the discussion which took place in that salubrious yet smokey hotel room. Beautiful stuff...Repton schoolmasters, farm labourers and Midland Railway clerks combine during a unique period of English social change to create the Beloved Club we know today. All in the name of filling the empty coffers of the faltering cricket club...

GuiseleyRam Posted May 22, 2020 Share Posted May 22, 2020 I have posted an article about DCFC books written by David Moore on the Derby County Memories website. Any books missing that should be on here? http://www.derbycountymemories.co.uk/read-all-about-it-a-comprehensive-list-of-Derby-county-books-by-david-moore Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghost of Clough Posted July 13, 2020 Share Posted July 13, 2020 This book, Raich Carter and Peter Doherty: Derby County's Perfect Partnership, has been unavailable to buy for a very long time (unless you wanted to pay £182.80 for it). I emailed the publisher a few weeks ago and it appears they snuck it on to Amazon, without replying to me, 2 weeks back. I have no idea if it's a good read or not, but it's pretty cheap at just £9.99 - so worth adding to your collections. P.S. does anyone have 'Let's Talk About Derby County Football Club' by Tom Morgan? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Macintosh Posted December 31, 2021 Share Posted December 31, 2021 On 20/05/2018 at 20:53, Bob The Badger said: I used to spend hours pouring over this one. I wish they'd update it. It got updated twice. The last one was 2006 by Gerald Mortimer. A funny story about this cover, a transparency had been chosen from Raymonds News Agency, a lovely action image of Alan Hinton volleying the ball, everyone thought it worthy of the jacket. Then we looked closely and found out it was Steve Wicks. Carl Sagan 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

uttoxram75 Posted December 31, 2021 Share Posted December 31, 2021 Not about Derby but its the story of the 1971/72 season, which obviously includes many mentions of the eventual League Champions as it chronicles the season month by month. Its not about stats and tables, more of a fantastic collection of stories and anecdotes that links the author's theme of "Footballs greatest season". Well worth a read to anyone as old as me but possibly a great insight to football of that era to younger fans as well. https://www.pitchpublishing.co.uk/shop/7172 Inverurie Ram and IslandExile 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ellafella Posted January 1, 2022 Share Posted January 1, 2022 Not about Derby but a good read and an interesting insight into the Clough family and their “adopted” son Craig Bromfield. I think Craig got some help from some Members on here with research for the book. Anyhow on p236. is the explanation behind Brian’s famous quote “ Derby is a football city, Nottingham never has been”. Nice one Craig. Amazing story. loweman2, OoooMarkWright and Inverurie Ram 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
